While we were out on this morning tour, we discussed what our possibilities for what came next. We chose the base tour, to just walk around the outside. You are allowed to climb the rock, but the aborigines ask that you not because it is sacred to them. We opted out lest we incur some bad mojo.
This was the last shot of the sequence. I just wanted to show how different it looks as the light changes. It was incredible to watch and definately worth the morning ride and the cold. It was amazingly beautiful. We also caught the sunset from a similar locale, but this was most impressive.
We toured the base in the morning and in the afternoon we went on to a second formation called Kata Tjuta, or the Olgas. I actually liked this one more, even if it less famous.
This is a picture Krissy took while we hiked through this canyon at the Olgas. Again, you can't see the man she's taking of a pic of, so I marked him. It shows really how massive all of these things are. This canyon hike was amazing and I wish our pictures could have done it justice.
I told you it was impressive. Look how impressed I am.
On our ride back from the Olgas, our bus was packed and we were the last people on. Unfortunately, the only seat left open for us was wet from something (I didn't want to know what) and it was funny because all the people totally pretended like nothing was wrong. So Krissy took this shot of me drying off my soaked shirt that we sat on. We were highly grumpy at the time, but its funny now... sort of.
